Marmot: Jackets

Marmot Jackets

Marmot began making down vests, parkas, sweaters and sleeping bags in 1975. Focused on making the highest quality outerwear possible, Marmot was the first company to embrace GORE-TEX® waterproof and breathable fabric technology. By 1979, Marmot was making GORE-TEX® jackets and sleeping bags.  Marmot remains a leader in high quality outerwear today offering a full line of jackets for men and women including:

1. Soft Shells
2. Rain wear
3. Ski shells
4. Fleece
5. Down insulation

Marmot uses several different leading fabric technologies in their outerwear including:

• GORE-TEX® PRO SHELL - A premier three-layer waterproof and breathable membrane construction designed for extended and rugged use. Ski and mountaineering shells made with Pro Shell are designed to perform at the highest level and offer serious protection from the elements while maintaining breathability.
• GORE-TEX® PACLITE - A premier lightweight three-layer waterproof and breathable membrane construction designed with packability and lightweight construction in mind. Ideal for hiking, cycling and running where weight and space are primary concerns.
• WINDSTOPPER® - A soft shell fabric technology that offers total windproofness and maximum breathability in soft shell jacket styles. These shells are great for skiing, hiking and general use where protection from the wind is a priority.
• PreCip® - Marmot’s premier technical waterproof and breathable fabric is a lightweight compressible fabric designed with rain and ski wear in mind. The advantage to PreCip® is it compressibility, light weight and affordable pricing.
• MemBrain® - Marmot’s most affordable waterproof and breathable fabric. It balances durability with waterproof and breathable performance and a soft feel.
